Tesla Cybertruck interior revealed in best video yet
A short video was posted to the internet today with the best view of Cybertruck’s interior yet, including a glimpse at the car’s main interface in action.
As Cybertruck comes closer to production, we’ve been seeing more and more of it popping up in public. We’ve recently seen it supercharging, seen the frunk open, and seen it towing a big trailer.
But so far, interior looks have mostly consisted of videos while the Cybertruck isn’t in operation (e.g. parked at a show event, or after crashing into a ditch), or videos from the original unveiling event. We’ve seen one photo with the truck turned on, but that’s about it as far as recent looks go.
Well, now we have a 56 second video of the inside of the Cybertruck, taken by someone who kind of sounds like they’re not supposed to be there:
The language and captions are in Russian, though they don’t say much (“cool,” “this is how the hazard lights work,” “this is Elon Musk’s bag haha,” and so on). It doesn’t seem like it’s being taken by a Tesla employee, perhaps a transport company worker or someone who for some reason found a car that was momentarily unlocked.
Mostly, we just get a quick look at various parts of the car we haven’t seen before, especially the interface.
The car starts off with the backup camera activated, showing rear and side cameras. There’s still no around-view camera, something that many other cars have but Tesla currently does not.
Then our tour guide fiddles around with the map, showing that it responds quite smoothly, as one might expect. The car seems to be parked at or near a Manheim car auction lot outside Columbus, Ohio, according to the GPS on the map. Which is… kind of a strange place for an unreleased high-profile vehicle to be parked (complete with “service required” warnings for autopilot and safety restraint systems).
The interface is delineated similarly to that of Tesla’s other vehicles with the map on the right and vehicle display on the left, though the separation between the two is a blurred line rather than a solid one.
We get a look at the visualization of the Cybertruck while parked, but it’s just sitting parked on a low-polygon rendering of terrain, in what seems to be a default rendering for a parked vehicle. And behind the screen, we see Tesla’s new colorful ambient lighting strip which has started to show up on the Model 3 Refresh and Chinese Model Y.
The car shows 84% on the battery, but unhelpfully, there is no range display – even as our guide tries to tap it a few times to see what it might say. And the screen has a “swipe to change gears” indicator, just like other new Teslas that have suffered from stalk deletion.
And finally, as a fun easter egg, the backup camera has a hexagonal design. Which… almost matches up with the octagonal design visible on the cupholders.
Moving through the rest of the car, there is a “tray” area between the front seats, much like the old Model S had. It has some wires and an unreadable document in it. Above that, the center console has octagonal “cyber cupholders” like we’ve seen in the backseat, but which are different than the rounded ones on the Cybertruck Franz von Holzhausen brought to a car show in June. Both have 2 phone charging spots available in front of the cupholders.
We don’t see anything particularly new in the backseat, except for the massive glass roof which seems quite expansive from the inside. From our experience riding in the Cybertruck at the unveiling event, the interior already felt cavernous even at night, but this should add an even more open feeling during the day.
Finally, looking back to the front, we can see our guide operate the two-stage sun visor, which looks somewhat similar to that in the Model X.
Did you notice anything in the video that we didn’t? What do you think about this most recently look at the Cybertruck interior? What do you think this car could be doing being operated by a random Russian guy in a car auction lot outside Columbus, Ohio? Let us know in the comments below.

Momentum, the lifestyle-focused urban bike brand under Giant Group, has just launched the latest version of its popular Vida E+ electric bike – and this one’s all about making e-biking smoother, safer, and more accessible to riders of all experience levels.
The updated Vida E+ features a new 500W SyncDrive Move S motor offering 60Nm of torque and pedal assist up to 28 mph, designed to provide natural-feeling power whether you’re cruising to work or just exploring around town. The system uses a combination of sensors to analyze torque, speed, and cadence, automatically adjusting power output to match your pedaling effort.
According to Momentum, the motor engages with as little as 4Nm of pedal pressure and just 10° of crank movement, giving riders what they describe as an ultra-smooth and effortless start every time.
A new optional throttle adds another layer of convenience, letting riders cruise at speeds up to 20 mph without pedaling, which should be perfect for hills, traffic-heavy starts, or when you just want to relax and take it easy on the way home. The bike’s EnergyPak 700 battery provides up to a claimed 55 miles (88 km) of range on pedal assist or 43 miles (69 km) on throttle-only riding.
The Vida E+ also leans hard into comfort and safety. It sports a low-step aluminum frame for easy on-and-off, an 80 mm suspension fork, and wide 26×2.4-inch tires for stability and plushness. Four-piston hydraulic disc brakes ensure solid stopping power, while a new automatic motor cutoff feature stops assistance as soon as the brakes engage. The bike is UL 2849 certified, meaning it meets top-tier safety standards for batteries and electronics, which is a growing priority in the e-bike world as more cities and states consider requiring safety certification as a prerequisite.
With support for up to 300 pounds (136 kg) total load and optional racks front and rear, the Vida E+ is also built for everyday utility. And on the tech side, momentum’s RideControl app lets riders fine-tune speed and assistance, lock or unlock the bike electronically, and monitor battery health.
The new Momentum Vida E+ is available now through Giant Group’s nationwide dealer network with an MSRP of US$2,480.
Returning from a recall on its previous bike, Giant Group will now have an opportunity to see how the new version of the Momentum Vida E+ will fare.

VW’s US EV lease deals just went from hero to zero. Federal tax credits are now dead, the automaker has wiped out up to $12,000 in lease incentives on the ID.4, and ended $10,500 in discounts on the ID. Buzz. The move bucks the trend as other brands continue to sweeten their EV lease offers.
As of September 30, 2025, Volkswagen offered up to $12,350 in lease cash on the ID.4, depending on configuration. That included a $7,500 federal lease tax credit for lessees as Bonus Customer Cash, plus $3,500 to $4,850 in Dealer Lease Cash. It made the ID.4 one of the top EV lease deals around.
On October 1, those incentives vanished. While the ID.4 still has a 0% APR equivalent lease rate, drivers lost more than $12,000 in savings overnight. The ID. Buzz took a similar hit. Last month, the 2025 ID. Buzz offered $10,500 off MSRP between the $7,500 tax credit and $3,000 Dealer Lease Cash. Now, almost all lease cash is gone. VW Credit is offering just $750 in Dealer Lease Cash, and weirdly, not on models with two-tone paint. According to CarsDirect’s lease calculator, the lowest-priced ID. Buzz trim now carries an effective monthly cost topping $1,000 — a considerable jump.
For comparison, the ID. Buzz Pro S was previously advertised at $589 a month for 36 months with $5,999 due at signing, or an effective monthly cost of $756.
The ID.4 lease once cost just $233 a month, making it one of the cheapest EVs to lease. According to updated estimates, that figure is now north of $800 – that’s hair-raising.
Meanwhile, VW’s rivals are going in the opposite direction. Ford extended its Mustang Mach-E lease deals through early January. Subaru’s updated 2026 Solterra still qualifies for the $7,500 lease credit, and Jeep replaced the expiring EV lease credit with equivalent bonus cash.
If you really want a Volkswagen, though, there’s some good news: financing deals haven’t changed. The 2025 ID.4 continues to offer 0% APR for 72 months, and buyers of the ID. Buzz can still get up to $3,250 in Bonus Customer Cash through November 3, a perk unavailable to lessees.
It kinda seems like VW doesn’t want to lease their EVs anymore…?? Let me know your thoughts in the comments below.
